Well, there are plenty of problems with CVS that subversion is addressing.
But in our case, I don't think we were facing any particular problem with
CVS. IT's just that the folks at the ASF have been experimenting with subversion
a lot and found it to be a good replacement to CVS. So we just followed in their
footsteps.
